What started off as a faint signal while detecting in the Golden Triangle in Victoria, just gradually got deeper and louder until I just couldn't walk away.
I've owned the GPX 5000 for just over a year now, but until recently I had never used the stock 11" Commander coils that came with it. A recent problem with my neck, and a warning from my Chiropractor to take it easy over the weekend, meant hanging up the NF 25" DDX and cancelling the trip.- But then I remembered the 11" coils, so I decided to stick on the 11'' DD that came with the detector for some "Shallow" targets instead, and using Iron Reject to help cut down the amount of digging. Well, so I thought.............

Just one small error in the Video- I mention Bluejeans Ronnie's pick as being the "Big Brother" model. I think it's model designation is actually the "Little Brother"? Anyway, it's "only" 720mm long.

This is the first Video I've ever uploaded and for some reason the link doesn't seem to work, so here's the URL

Thanks Ded, I've only just joined up to YouTube. I'll go and fiddle with the preferences now.
 
Thanks Grubstake. I just went in and made it public. That was almost as hard work for my old brain as digging that bloody pick head out! :lol:
 
Crikey, this uploading caper is like trying to crack the DaVinci Code. Thanks grubstake, I'll go back in and see if I can sort it.

Don`t panic, Deepseeker. The link highlighted in yellow above the black box in your post actually does work. You dug a big hole to find a miner`s pick. Good work.
